There are worse things to worry about than Punk bands being on major labels. Actually it can be a good thing. I may be wrong but didn't Anti-Flag do 2 albums on a major, made heaps of money and then set up their own recording studio ? The album that followed "Bright Lights of America" which got some negative reviews, I think is their best ! And Didn't Chumbawamba become a household name and make loads of money from the one hit they had on EMI, and were then dropped by EMI anyway ?

welll the clash were on major label, samoe with the ramoens and the pistols..... in other words: GET OVER IT its the music that counts, since when did "punks" get so snobby?

Well, what a bunch of un-needed, whiney, shit playing, shit dressing, manufactured wank. And to think that Mr. Joeseph would be turning and throwing up in his blessed grave this very moment. Leave it in London.

i don't really know what to think about anti-flag anymore. I mean, they're good, but i think they're more into activism then they are into punk. like they've always been into activism, but now it's gone further. i think. atleast you can take them seriously. but, they may need a bigger record label to get their ideas out there. tough call, really. but i would feel stupid buying they're new album from Target.

they only band i ever thought really sold out is AFI. Listen to like there first five records (really their first three) and tell me they didn't sell out.

well said bro

bare in mind, at the time of the clash, ramones and the pistols, you pretty much HAD to be on a major label to make an influence and be heard. nowadays thanks to new media and the internet an indepent record band can go even further than a major label band.



there is nothing wrong with being on a major label if it benefits the band. as long as they still make the music they want to. look at green day. everyone called them sellouts when they went to reprise, but their sound didnt change for two albums at which point they grew up and their tastes changed. and just coz somethings popular doesnt mean its bad. judge music by what you hear, not by what you see.
